Mauza Hairo is a village of Jampur tehsil, Union Council Hairo Num 12, Rajanpur District. It is located 15 km southeast of Jampur near the Kotla Mughlan. About 1000 years ago there was a city. The Indus River washed all the city away, and it remained flooded for about 25 years. Once again in July 2010, Hairo was included in flooded area. The Government of Pakistan and Pakistan Army attempted to help the people affected by the 2010 flood.[citation needed] Mostly, the people speak Saraiki and Balochi.
The foundation of this Mauza was laid by Ghulam Hassan Khan Gopang. The name "Mauza Hairo" was officially selected and declared in the year 2000. Since then, this area has been officially recognized by the name of Mauza Hairo in all revenue and government records.
Ghulam Hassan Khan Gopang played a vital and historic role in the establishment, settlement, and development of this Mauza Hairo.
